Chuck- this is the first I'm hearing of that wax. Good to know that you have had success with it.

OldGlory- You're right, the manufacturer is a good place to start. I really wish that I could get a better hot throw with 464 since I really like working with it. I will continue to test. I'm making a batch today, so fingers crossed that it goes well!

Chuck- Thanks for the reply. If you don't mind sharing, what was your old wax that you went back to? I really like the skewer idea, that will save some wax and fragrance! As of now, I'm not planning on using color. So that will be one less thing to worry about. I will continue to test!

How long should I allow 4627 and 4630 (separately) to cure for before I light them? What are the optimal temps to add fragrance and pour that you have found? What little tips/tricks do you have for working with these? Do any of you only use one of these waxes for container candles and love it? Also, I am thinking of mixing one of these with 464 to make a parasoy blend. What one would you recommend I do this with? I'm thinking of 70% paraffin and 30% 464 to start. Also, based on the paraffin that you recommend for the mix, what would the temps be to add fragrance, to pour, and the cure time for the blend? I love the way that 464 looks and burns, however, I am not getting a good hot throw. I have read that it can be a variety of variables, but I would like to add a paraffin to see if this improves it. I have 8 oz tins, with a 3" diameter, and I have htp, zinc, and eco wicks that I can use. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and give me your advice. I have already spent more money on this new hobby than I should have!
